"After spending so much effort to create such a cage, if I were to do it personally because of such a small matter, I'm afraid that it would be somewhat lacking in style." "I'm more inclined to believe that there's a scavenger inside the cage who's trying to kill anyone who discovers the secret."
"Of course, maybe I'm wrong. After all, I'm not a god. I can't predict the will of the world. "
Angor chuckled. "I think you do understand the will of the creator. So, are you going to look for the murderer now?"
"Yes, but I'm not sure if I should put it into action yet. After all, everyone who tried to find the truth is dead. If I go deeper, I might die as well. The only exception is you. " Alex stared at Angor with a thoughtful look. He didn't care about Angor's background at first, but now, he wanted to know who Angor was.
"I'm just a passerby." Angor shrugged.
"Will you help me then?" It sounded like a casual question, but Alex's eyes were fixed on Angor. He was trying to figure out which side Angor belonged to.
Was Angor lying to him? Or was Angor on the same side as the Cage Lord? Or was he the Cage Lord himself?
"If what you're trying to do is to find out the location of this place, I can help you."
Of course, Angor would only help Alex if he stayed behind. If he had to leave early due to some unforeseen circumstances, Angor wouldn't be able to help him.
Alex stared at Angor for a few seconds and nodded. "Thank you."
Angor didn't say that he would help Alex directly. However, if he wanted to find out the location of the cage, he had to find out the truth first.
For the rest of the time, Alex seemed determined to solve the case and find the truth.
He took out a box full of files. Angor looked through them and saw that Alex had collected a series of murder cases.
"Didn't you say you're not interested in these cases? Why are you collecting so many files?" Angor asked in a teasing tone.
Alex paused. "When I first started collecting information, I thought that it might implicate me. After all, I thought that the murderer would randomly choose his targets and that I might be his target."
But as I gathered more information, I found out his secret. As long as I don't do anything stupid, I won't get into trouble. So, later on, when I collected information, it was just a hobby. "
A hobby? Angor noticed that Alex didn't show any emotion when he said the word.
It was completely different from the compassionate look he showed when he was comforting Connie.
Angor.
"So your hobby is to write about their deaths with a pen? What you're saying doesn't sound like a priest at all. "
Alex said, "Being a priest is just a job on the surface. There are all kinds of things inside. At least, I won't cause trouble for my believers. "
"As I recall, there are only two priests in Kruje Church, right? You're a would-be priest, and the other one is Father Bron Lang. So, when you said that Xin would cause trouble for others, you were referring to him? "
Alex curled his lips but didn't say anything.
Angor recalled the deep interaction between Bron Lang and Alex, and he suddenly found it interesting.
Alex was not only a serious person, but he also knew how to control himself. It seemed like he was interacting intimately with others, but his feelings were actually very cold. He only had passion for the goal he had set. As for other things, even if it was a matter of urgency, he would not be moved.
Very much like a well-mannered demon.
Although this demon didn't eat people, it didn't mean he looked down on them.
Of course, a demon was a demon. If necessary, Alex would kill without hesitation.
As Alex said, he wouldn't cause trouble for his believers "for no reason". But what if there was a reason?
The next day came in the blink of an eye.
Angor floated in the confessional of Kruje Church and quietly watched Alex casually reveal Rayven's last wish to Connie.
No matter how polite a demon was, he still had fangs. Just like now.
"Chapter 132 of the Bible … Father once told his believers to try not to have any regrets in life. If they do, even if they are taken to the holy kingdom, they will still be worried and even lose their minds. "
After Alex finished, Connie's eyes went blank for a moment, as if she had made up her mind.
"What are you thinking, Connie? Let's continue to read new chapters of the Divine Scripture so that your sad heart can be freed from the cage created by Knight Raven as soon as possible. "
Only then did Mrs Connie react. "Oh, I'm not thinking of anything. Alright, continue reading …"
Before Mrs Connie left, Alex, with a compassionate expression, once again mentioned Sir Rayven's last wishes without a trace.
Mrs. Connie, on the other hand, left thoughtfully.
After Mrs Connie had left, Father Bollenlang came in and spoke to Alex for a while. Then he patted Alex on the shoulder and praised him. "Mrs Connie was very pleased with your explanation. She just said that she had understood what she wanted to do in her pious communion with the Father. It's all thanks to you. Well done! "
Alex accepted the compliment with a smile on his face.
When Alex was alone in the confessional, his smile was still there, as if he was still happy about Father Bran Lang's praise. But perhaps only he knew what he was truly happy about.
"Are you going to push Connie into the abyss of death?"
Angor slowly landed and looked at the smiling young man in front of him. The door of the confessional was not closed yet. A gust of wind blew in from outside, lifting the young man's half-length white hair. Together with his handsome face, he looked like a beautiful painting.
"I didn't. I only told her what I knew about Knight Rayven. I can't decide what she wants to do, "Alex said," Everyone makes their own choices in life. Why would I help someone make a decision? "
Nice words. But was that really the truth?
The easiest way to find the murderer was to find another victim. When the murderer was committing a crime, it was also the easiest time to find out who the murderer was.
It was actually very simple to create a new victim. As long as the murderer's logic was followed, the new victim could be easily found.
Next, Alex set his target on Connie.
Connie lost her beloved son, and she was in a state of grief. If Alex told Connie that Rayven's last wish was to buy a ticket to Hymnal Hall for his sweetheart …
Then Connie would very likely go and buy the ticket to fulfill her son's last wish. If Alex used his words to persuade her, there was a 90% chance that Connie would go to the Holy City.
Once Connie left Ghost Town and went to the Holy City, she would naturally become the target of the murderer.
This was Alex's plan. Even if he didn't say it directly from the beginning to the end, he had already made it very clear what he wanted to do through his metaphors and hints.
Alex took out a pen and paper and began to write quickly.
Angor glanced around and saw Alex's plan. The man had already included Connie's death in his plan. From this, it could be seen that his words were completely different from what he was thinking.
When Alex finished his plan, he looked at Angor. "Now that Rayven is buried, Connie will probably leave as soon as she gets back. She'll leave this afternoon.
"Mister Padt, do you want to come with me later?"
To do what? Both Angor and Alex knew that they were going to see the murderer's true identity.
